Description
Polyvagal Theory in Therapy: Engaging the Rhythm of Regulation
This book presents Polyvagal Theory in a client-friendly way, offering therapists an integrated approach to incorporating this theory into their practice. It provides clear explanations of the organizing principles of Polyvagal Theory, translated into language that is easy to understand.
Therapists can use the unique autonomic mapping process and accompanying worksheets to track autonomic response patterns, and engage the regulating capacities of the ventral vagal system. This helps clients reshape their autonomic nervous systems, build capacities for regulation, and create pathways of safety and connection.
